What is rooting ?

Rooting of a mobile is descriptive of its name itself. For any mobile phone , there are some areas you cannot see or alter . Its for the safety of the product as you may unknowingly alter it and may damage the piece. For getting complete control over the piece , we are going to take a process called rooting which makes us the complete owner of it. This process is developed by the xda developers who are best at these stuff . And they made the process for expect available even to dummies . Root means administrator.

Why root your phone ?

As i told you ,your phone is protected from you by the developer. So to install custom roms and many other stuffs , the phone is not ready as you are going to change the system files by doing it . So to bypass it , you have to root the phone . To enjoy it to the best , you have to root the phone . But be careful because rooting causes the warranty of the phone to break . So if you do this very exciting and fast , you may brick your phone and will be left nothing but a brick in your pocket . And once it is perfectly rooted , you can install custom roms , super user and in one word you would be the boss . So rooting can make a dummy into a genius .

Be careful !!

As i already told you , you have to do this process very slowly and carefully. First you have to backup everything on your phone . Save the back ups of your loved apps by this process i already explained.

Now save all your contacts and messages you consider important. Your phone would be like a new phone after this process is complete . So be careful to save everything .

NOTE : Make sure your battery is charged and is atleast 70% .

(TO ROOT OR NOT TO ROOT IS ONLY YOUR CHOICE . FOLLOW MY INSTRUCTIONS CLEARLY . AND I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE .)

Firstly i can not access my google account and the warning is"Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server" and root checker says a problem called "Root Access is not properly configured or was not granted". Now give me solution please. I did this with "universal_gb_root_v25.zip".

After i did this, nothing was change, my mobile was not rooted, But one problem occur, that is i can't sign in my google account, nothing else. without this i can use my mobile. But now how can fix this and is this problem is serious and can't repair easily? Please help me.

I did everything you prompted, and it all said, "the process were completed", tho I was wondering why did it happen such slow... But I thought, it was because my phone was rather empty and not having installed so much things. Anyway, my phone is working but it didn't get rooted and I dont know why. I did every step and it said it was all completed, but I installed root checker and it says my phone is not rooted and stupid software update is up there too... Do you have any ideas what the problem might be?

not installing many things will make your phone fast not slow . I dont understand why it happened . But there is other and easy way to root . You can see that here http://ilovegalaxyy.blogspot.in/2013/03/root-and-unroot-nice-and-easy-way.html

Sorry, my mistake, I replaced the words. It happened really fast and I was suprised why, tried twice later then but it's all the same. I was thinking about I didn't unzip that file I had to download, or it shouldn't even have to be unzipped? I don't know, I'm so clumsy at rooting. Thanks for the link by the way, I'll take a look again. I really love this phone and don't want to buy a new one, though it's pretty dummy, that's why I wanted to boost up with the rooting and all.

download this file http://www.mediafire.com/download/4g96fxq7zclonx8/GT-S5360_CWM.zip and copy to sd card . now go to recovery mode and flash this file . then in the mounts and storage section , select mount sdcard . it should show unmount after you click . then follow the above instructions . And by the way , i am a guy .
